To start the week off we had a ton of exciting news to share in the
Jailbreaking community. First off none other than P0sixninja announced
his new project called OpenJailbreak
that aims at making developing Jailbreaks easier. Then Ryan Petrich
shared a screenshot of Activator running on what appeared to be a Jailbroken 5th generation iPod Touch running iOS 7.

After Petrich shared this image many started to wonder whether or not
a bootrom exploit had been discovered as previously rumored by
P0sixninja. As the two announcements back-to-back seemed kind of strange
to not be a coincidence.

Sadly MuscleNerd chimed in today over Twitter stating
that there is no A5+ bootrom exploit and not even a bootrom dump.
Although this crushes hopes of having all A5 devices Jailbroken for life via a tethered Jailbreak like A4 devices, MuscleNerd has remained optimistic the end of Jailbreaking is nowhere in sight.
